A novel approach to exploring the dark genome and its application to mapping of the vertebrate virus fossil record
Abstract Background Genomic regions that remain poorly understood, often referred to as the dark genome, contain a variety of functionally relevant and biologically informative features. These include endogenous viral elements (EVEs)—virus-derived sequences that can dramatically impact host biology...
